From article "Both of the companies were fined a total of ¥200,000 which is equal to $31512.69 for failing to report to antitrust regulators that the joint venture had reached a market share threshold that usually requires disclosure to the government."
@Christopher It was a financial bloodbath, but they had two choices with Nokia either buy them or let windows phone die. Nokia produced over 90% of windows phones at the time and was considering going Android. MS did not have broad enough support from other OEMs. Ballmer did not want to lose that part of MS. Nadella was against it so he wrote it off as soon as he could.
IT's not selling great over because last count only 54,000 X1 sold over there. Give it time and it may sell more xboxes. It is not that big of a deal. It sold to about 12%-13% of xboxes in Japan.
Agree
He is one of those people that loves indies more than triple A games. He apparently believes MS should spend money marketing the upcoming indies instead of Halos and tomb raiders
IMO best JRPG ever
Remember when all the talk was dx12 was not coming to X1? That was obviously wrong. We really need to wait and see what happens.
Great read
You are so right!!! What happened to the BS they were spouting about not changing our games? Somehow they think that they are the majority of people that play games. Well guess what we are the majority of people that pay $60 for a game. And we like our games the way they are. Why do these people always feel that if they don't like something it must be wrong. They are like here let me fix this, now isn't that better. And the answer as usual is hell no!!! My tastes are not your tastes!!...
Are all these people sending death threats to these women super hackers that they can't be traced? No saying death treats aren't real, just amazed that no one has been caught yet. And my response to these ladies is make your games if people want them they will sell, just stay the F out of my games. It isn't about your freedom, it is about my freedom because you want to try and change the games I play because you want to change the way I view women. WTF who is the greater threat so...
Read his post. It makes sense, because one thing if they try to shove this crap down our throats those games won't sell. And as to Anita's comments if the games she wants would sell they would already be being made. You want a strong female character in a video game, we got Samus. The thing she fails to realize is that it swings both ways men are objectified as much as women in video games. She only sees what she wants to see. The biggest issue though is you can criticize the games a...
They need to start selling off their AAA IP Activision, Ubisoft and EA would be more than willing to buy them.
We were doing weekly Nightfall had boss down to half his life and was booted. Damn
Even if if a repeating enemy location it still takes hours to get anything good. And if they want to patch something patch that damn Crytarch that keeps giving you uncommons for rares and rares for lengendaries.
You are so right I purchased legendary gauntlets for my warlock then got a legendary gauntlet drop. This game's loot system will kill it as soon as other shooters come out.
I think you have to upgrade Cryptarch to level 11 to actually get what you should get from an Engram
Some items are worth 125 coins, The is a little dark hooded guy next to the guy that accepts spinmetal on the way to your guild leader that takes them
You just have to pass 777 to get the grimoire card.
you can go up to 16TB if you can find an external HHD at least 8TB as you can use 2 usb ports for external storage
Simple the market share has reached a set goal. So while they may be fined for not reporting it, xbox is growing in China
And as for Max grow up and and learn how to analyze an article for what is said indirectly. I don't appreciate your comment. Sarcasm is not a mode of commutation to someone you don't know.
